To go further, let's admit that our problem is not budget deficits or public debt — not now and not later. Let's agree that cutting Social Security and Medicare — inflicting pointless pain on the elderly — will not help. Let's build a new financial system to serve public purpose and private business. And let's start to act on our actual needs and problems: jobs, foreclosures, public investments, energy security and climate change.

This guy is of the "stimulus didn't go far enough" school. He wants a massive national inftrastructure bank that basically makes stimulus permanent.

Gee, wonder who this massive national bank will loan to and who it won’t loan to? Can you say unions?
